Music sensation BTS has become the first South Korean group to attain the number one slot on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart. The band managed the feat with its debut English single “Dynamite” which grabbed the top spot on August 31. Earlier in March, its song “On” reached the number four slot on the chart.
Billboard’s Hot 100 list combines all-genre U.S. streaming, radio airplay and sales data. “Dynamite” has brought BTS on the top 10 list for the fourth time.
Dynamite is also You Tube’s most-viewed premiere video. The music has garnered over 266 million views so far.
The Korean pop septet comprises J-Hope, Jungkook, Jimin, Jin, RM, Suga and V, recently also released the acoustic, instrumental, EDM and B-side versions of “Dynamite”.
Members of BTS have said they were in “tears”, after becoming the first all Korean pop act to top the Billboard 100 singles chart.
Jimin, one of seven members, said “tears kept coming”, adding in a tweet that he “didn’t know what to say”.
Another member Suga simply posted a string of crying emojis.
Dynamite broke records soon after its release on 21 August, with its pastel-coloured dance-heavy video reaching 101 million views on YouTube just 24 hours after its release.
The group said they wanted the song to convey “positive vibes, energy, hope, love, purity, everything”.
